Contentment, is when you feel a peace that is filled with joy, happiness and a bliss that is beyond words … it can last a moment … it can be a second of awareness … … … when it visits … … you know the experience is to savor.
Discover something new today. Have a willingness and an interest, and start your day with excitement

OK Trow played last night but it was at 5 slt this is an old poster, and China was not wearing a red costume she was wearing something else, but... the reason I’m posting about dancing and music is that it was FUN. So much we do in life is not about FUN it is about working at, or working for, or doing something for work or a project or, or, or…. One of the reasons the Trowzer Boa experience is such a delight is he is a musician that loves to improvise, his music is familiar yet different, he takes melodies and rearranges them. His whole set is fun, flirty and full of instrumental story telling. For a music lover it is a journey of the senses.
During the day we are bombarded with words, and more words.. and in most shows there are more words and story telling that are full of words that create what we take in. Whether radio/television, internet where we are reading, we are seeing/listening to words of others wanting us to see/hear what “they” have to say. What I have discovered working with Trowzer Boa * these many years now is that he provides a backdrop for MY thoughts, MY feelings, the music fills the air and my body will respond to the rhythms, I find myself “chair dancing” “toe tapping” singing words that may or may not be right, it doesn’t matter, they fit into MY Moment in time.
I question why Wednesdays are called “hump days”… does that not put a negative on the day before it even begins. Every day is a wonderful opportunity to explore and experience the world and the people around us… Just saying.
We all have different ways of feeling and thinking. Let’s always accept others’ differences and respect one another. Remember that “different strokes for different folks” is the key to having harmonious relationships with the people around us.

When you think “I’ve got it” think again. It is easy to misinterpret the situation and jump to conclusions. Always have a humble attitude and double check to make sure.

Enjoy these last days of summer, last night I heard a Halloweens tune at a concert I was at. Already there are signs the leaves are starting to change in places. This morning temperatures are more seasonal, in the 50’s.. Oh Oh OH OH pumpkins and goblins will soon be the theme of the day. You all know me, maybe I’ll find another crow for my indoor decor… LOL.. I can see some cringing happening out there… no I guess the turkey vulture I got last year that sits on the top of my cabinet in the living room looking down on guests can hold center stage for now..
I must say I find it truly amazing how newcomers to my “welcome room” are very discreet as they take in the eyes boring down on them. I tell you honestly, none comment, although, I note they don’t look up often. Will I ever grow up and out of this silly quirk of mine, likely not…Like a good wine, I’ll improve with “age” ..
Everyone has their own way of seeing and thinking. There are different points of view and ways of thinking which makes it interesting and creates new ideas. Try to enjoy others’ expressions.

here is another quote..
Always pray to become a better person. If you are content with the status quo, your progress will stop. Always seek for ways to improve yourself and continue to move forward one step at a time.

I was asked the other day,” how does one pray, what do you mean by pray”…. that is a very difficult question to answer in one sentence .. and it can’t be the same answer for everyone. Prayer is a very personal expression/action… we all are different in how we approach life and our way of dealing with life’s opportunities. I see prayer as a way of connecting with my inner SELF. and for ME… I believe that I am ONE with the Universe… so being in the moment, and taking time to sit quietly and BE in the moment with Makoto (sincerity) in my intent… some call it meditation… Prayer and Meditation are words.. it is the act of Being ONE with your inner Self.
You are welcome to share your thoughts in the comments below. Have a great day everyone, I appreciate and “love” you all.
Are you caught in an in-between world. Do you find that you are often thinking of what was, or wondering what happened to?
Do you find yourself watching movies or made for television series that have you lost in another person’s world/fantasy.?
Are there moments when you feel the weight of the world on your shoulders.?
Don’t give up! Keep at it until you accomplish what you’ve started. The key to achieving something is to stick to it. If you are able to continue something from start to finish, you will be sure to accomplish it no matter how difficult the task is.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of a chance encounter with a local photographer (Jim Robertson) and his wife at the conservation area that I visit each day for my morning “meditations” . Last night I was surprised to see an e-mail from him… Please allow me to share with you the link to his webpage.
https://express.adobe.com/page/WMpCvu93LoVCc/ he captured some of the turkeys that I talk to you about, it was a delight to see them reproduced right here in my office.. their spontaneity and anticipation of a treat. Always brings a “happy moment” ..
Calendar-

Thank you so much Jim, I loved the surprise, and thank you for granting me permission to share it with my friends/readers.
Have a great day everyone!………. PL Precept # 1 Life is Art.
Don’t hesitate to show kindness to others. Do you ever find yourself hesitating to show kindness to someone? It is when you put your thoughts into action tht you can show others what is in your heart.

I would like to share a video with you.. that you might find helpful … when dealing with a difficult or stressful period in your life.
Enjoy your day!
Have you ever stood by a cascading water fall, heard the rushing of the water over the rocks, as it travels over the many boulders and dips into the valleys it travels over. it is an awesome feeling to follow its path towards its destination where-ever that may be. It flows with an abandon that is beyond its control, it simply lives in the moment.
After a fall when you’ve hit your head, the healing process is much the same, the body has been shaken your whole system has to rebalance itself. The task before you is trusting in your inner voice, listening to what you can and cannot do… the biggest for me, is to practice PATIENCE.
Todays calendar reminds me… “to start with what I can do” and to think before i take action…
The path to achievement is “to start with what you can do” Try to find out what you can do towards challenges in your own situation. This will pave the way for achievement.

Happiness dear friends, is sharing with YOU. thank YOU!
The heat, the unbearable heat, the flames, licked and tore at every inch of my Being
I screamed into the night, calling for help
The scars, the death of my offspring, tender young branches
forever etched into my lifeless form
I am no more
yet the shell of what I was, remains.. a sight for all to see….
life will go on around me….
new growth will sprout, nourished by my remains
as I fade into history, back to where I began
life will evolve… it always does…
death and life are intertwined, where one ends, the other begins.
Q
Be true to yourself. No matter how you try to make yourself appear differently, you can’t alter your self worth. Just be yourself, and freely express yourself without hesitation

Coming to terms with the reality of Now. When was younger, I was always confident that if something didn’t happen today it would tomorrow. Now ,, I realize that what is happening Now, is the reality of the moment and even if you wake to a new day, it will still be NOW.
If today is when you want ice cream, then either get it and enjoy it, or forget it. Tomorrow should you wake to live it, it will be a brand new day. It is simple really, don’t live for tomorrow, live for the moment, NOW is all you can be sure of.
Respect the existence of each other. the world consists of people with different circumstances and different lifestyles. Respect and understand each other.

Don’t think too much. Simply live each moment the best you can.
Today is Thursday isn’t it. Here is my door for today..
I wanted nothing fancy, nothing new, I just wanted to be able to enjoy the view. I picture this little cabin somewhere in a wooded area, an easy walk to a babbling brook, or a lazy stream. come join me .. sit a spell, let’s simply enjoy being in nature together.. No cell phone, no television, not even a radio.
Later we can build a fire, or start the old wood stove and listen to the crackling of the fire around the dried wood. while we wait for the water to boil and we will share a refreshing cup of ginger tea. I have a shawl or blanket if you feel the chill of the early evening, we can watch as the stars start appearing in the sky.
